| Description |
Battista Franco’s etching depicts a group of shepherds who visit the Virgin Mary and Jesus after Jesus’s birth. Guided by a host of angels, the shepherds’ twisting bodies, pointing gestures, and directional gazes—mirrored by those of an ass and a cow—offer witness to the miraculous birth. Groups of men conversing in the background offer a more intellectual approach to the miracle, while Joseph gazes calmly and contemplatively from the right. |
